Boat rental in Saint-Cyprien · Dufour — 375 Grand Large (2011)
Description of Jean-Louis's sailboat
Sailboat Dufour 375 Grand Large 11.19m
MARCELLO is a 2011 DUFOUR 375 GL, very well equipped for Mediterranean cruising: sunshades, sprayhood, and bimini. It features twin steering wheels, allowing ample freedom of movement around the cockpit table, which seats eight. It's very easy to handle: chart table, complete electronics, GPS plotter, autopilot, depth sounder, anemometer, etc. It sails well: full-batten mainsail, large furling genoa, and in case of a windless situation, a 29hp outboard motor! It's very comfortable: three cabins plus a convertible saloon berth, galley, large refrigerator, ample storage, hot water (380L tank), etc. ...and for anchoring, fishing, or swimming: a spacious swim platform, swim ladder, electric windlass, and a dinghy without an engine. Equipped for offshore cruising: all safety equipment. It is based in St. Cyprien, in the heart of Catalan country: to the north, long sandy beaches; to the south, coves, Cap de Creus, Cadaqués, the Bay of Roses, Barcelona, and of course, the Balearic Islands. Access to the berth is contingent upon the opening of a swing bridge at fixed times: between 8:20 a.m. and 7:20 p.m. in the summer and between 8:20 a.m. and 5:20 p.m. in the off-season. Marcello has just returned from a trip to Greece, for which work was carried out in 2022: new mainsail, new genoa and sheets, new bimini and sprayhood, new batteries, and a new dinghy.

Overall rating
Nous avons passé 15j incroyable! Merci infiniment à Jean-Louis et Anne de leur accueil, disponibilité et surtout leur confiance. Marcello est parfaitement adapté à notre famille (2 adultes et 2 enfants) et nos invités - jusqu'à 8 a bord sans le sentiment d'être trop serré. Place de port vraiment tranquille mais proche de la plage et des commerces avec parking et WC/douche à 60m. Bateau très facile à manœuvrer dans le port et très stable sous voile. A recommander le voilier et les propriétaires sans hésitation - nous sommes déjà entrain de penser à notre prochain navigation à bord. We have just spent 2 weeks as a family of 4 plus guests on board Marcello and we had a wonderful time! The owners Anne and Jean-Louis were perfect hosts who were available to answer questions before and during the rental. She is very spacious on deck and below, easily manageable in port and at sea even single-handed if necessary and very comfortably equipped. The mooring is idealy situated in a very calm area, close to the beach & shops and the bathroom facilities and parking are also nearby. We have no hesitation in recommending both Marcello and her owners and we are already planning our next vacances à bord...!! Encore merci beaucoup et à bientôt!
We had an exceptional time on Jean-Louis' boat. The boat is very well equipped and Jean-Louis is very attentive and friendly.
Magnificent sailboat, in perfect condition! No complaints. Many thanks Jean-Louis for your availability and the presentation of the boat. We can't wait to do it again :)
Rental in accordance with the offer. Jean louis is very accessible and took the necessary time to get started. Return without any problem. Boat easy to navigate, only small brake, the constraint of the swing bridge. We highly recommend Marcello. Experience to repeat.
Delicious fortnight spent aboard Marcello, a very comfortable and good walker sailboat. The sailboat you need if, like us, you want to discover the beautiful Cala de Mallorca from St Cyprien. Jean-Louis is a serious owner, attentive to our expectations and very responsive to answer all our requests, the sense of welcome and advice in addition. With his new mainsail, Marcello will be at the top. Many thanks to Jean-Louis.
A very nice week on Marcello. Jean louis is a very nice owner. And his boat is perfectly maintained. I recommend with your eyes closed.
Great week on Marcello. Very spacious and easy to navigate boat. We appreciated the welcome from Jean-Louis, everything was clear and well explained. Thank you for everything. We highly recommend!
Jean Louis and his wife are extremely welcoming. The advice given at the start was numerous and useful. The capacity of the water and oil tanks is important, the refrigerator quite simply genial.il missing only the spinnaker. I recommend the boat and their owners.
Thanks to Jean-Louis' precious oral and written explanations, we had a perfect week on Marcello. Do not look for another boat in St-Cyprien (or elsewhere ...), it is the best sailboat at the best price! Thank you again for your presence on boarding as well as on arrival and the good times spent together.
Wonderful week aboard Marcello! The boat is very pleasant to live with with very beautiful volumes and all the necessary comfort equipment. It is very clean and very well equipped. The large refrigerator is a real plus !! As for navigation, she is a very good walker and the equipment makes her very manoeuvrable even with a small crew. Jean-Louis and his wife are very welcoming and the handling is clear and complete. Thank you very much and we are already thinking about our next stay on board !!
A big thank you to Jean-Louis and his wife for entrusting us with Marcello for a week! The boat is spacious and comfortable (there were 7 of us) and the navigation flawless. We had a fantastic vacation!
The DUFOUR 375 GL rented by Jean-Louis is in excellent condition and very well maintained. The boat itself is spacious and has a lot of storage, we were 8 for a week and there were empty storage spaces. Despite its undeniable volume, it does not go too badly on the water. Jean Louis has been able to make some improvements to his boat which makes it even more pleasant to live in. It was a treat to sail on it for a week. I will rent it again without hesitation.
